Experimental Study on Flexural Bearing Capacity of Concrete Beams Strengthened with NSM CFRP-PCPs Composite Bars

Article Preview

Abstract:

The flexural behavior of concrete beams strengthened with near surface mounted (NSM) CFRP-PCPs composite rebars was studied. Experimental results showed that embedded CFRP-PCPs reinforcement method can effectively improve strength, stiffness and cracks of the reinforced concrete member, and PCPs increased with concrete bonding area, thus avoiding the strip damage of the traditional embedded reinforcement.
